tons OF labor and capital In a practical manner.
The result of his experience and reflection Is
that cooperation would solve the great eco
nomic problem OF to-day more satisfactorily
than most people think. The time has come, IN
his opinion, when the employer is less needed
than he once was when the laboring men can
easily organize and provide themselves with
work; when hundred of them, for instance, IL
Industrious and honest, could quickly obtain
credit for any enterprise their abilities might
suggest. What they pay their employer This
profits under the present system for hiring
them would under cooperation, go into their
own pockets Would not the conflict between
labor and capital thus be avoided Fanatical
adherents to abstract theories may dispute some
of the propositions advanced by Senator STAN
ford. but they are quite likely to win favor in
the eyes of common sense men everywhere.

the want extends 10 the public schools Of the
Middle and Western States. So II 1t occurs
to ex-president Cleveland that the hint placed
OF his disposal by this Democratic editor is o
good one, he can go ahead constructing the
textbook with tho consciousness that he Is
reinforcing the school system Of the North at
a point where it was never reinforced before.
Certainly il the assertions in regard to Calhoun
with which the South greeted the unveiling OF
his monument be correct, Northern schools
ought To welcome such textbook. The South
insists that Calhoun is to be regarded as the
greatest statesman that our country has yet pro-
duced. II Northern School Boards can be brought
TO believe that then "Cleveland's Calhoun.
or The American Boys and Girls Complete
Guide to the Salvation of the Union can
prolitably be prepared. But so long as the
conviction is general at the North that Calhoun
was fundamentally wrong in his conception OF
our Republican system. and that therefore his
craftsmanship is to be regarded as failure. as
stupendous as it was brilliant-why, probably
the preparation of the textbook might as well
be indefinitely postponed That's the way it
strikes us. But then Cleveland may not agree
with THE TRIBUNE.

THE TILDEN LIBRARY.

The executors of Mr.. Tilden's will have
acted with promptness in delivering the great
estate which he designed to place at the dis
pOsal Of the public into the custody Of the
trustees incorporated to receive it Nr. Til
den's plan was conceived in munifccnt and
scholarly spirit 1t did credit not only to his
disposition, but to his mind rs well. The
American nature is naturally generous, and il
is worth rcmarking that the charity Of rich
men has spread itself over a great variety Of
objects. Hospitals. colleges, schools for tech.
ncal training institutions for the blind and
destitute, have been erected in profusion. In
view Of the liberal tendencies of men who have
created large fortunes, it is somewhat remark
able that Mr.. Tilden's notable gift should be
so novel. And yet, it is true that public
library such as his will contempatcs will be a
solitary figure among the monuments left by
rich Americans TO the public
How far the courts will permit the purpose
of the will to be executed without interference
il cannot be said. but even il the heirs succeed
in securing more liberal allowance than the
terms Of the will gave them, the city is still
likely TO obtain great library. When that
assurance is afforded beyond the possibility of
legal interference, proper arrangement should
be made for receiving the gift. IL is intended
to be available for everybody, and it should be
so situated as to carry out that purpose. When
the trustees can definitely and positively say
just what they will be able to do, the city
should enable them to do it without delay. A
library so magnlcently endowed and open to
the people without undue restriction should be
an immense instrument for good in this com
munity. 1t should he a powerful agency in
the spread of enlightenment among that count
less host whose resources are limited and whose
aspirations are high.

and their murderous greed be atoned by mulct-
ing them few hundred dollars. To stop
crime of this kind examples are needed. The
fine does not reach the heart Of the abuse.
II ought to be shown that the rascal who un-
dertales to administer poison to our infants
is considered at least as great criminal as the
man who breaks into our houses at night
Nothing less than round term Of years at
hard labor in the State Prison would be an
adequate punishment for the swill-milk crime
and the Board Of Health ought to urge upon
the Legislature the proper classification of this
far-reaching and most serious offence. We
profess to regard murder as the worst crime
that can be committed, and punish 1t with
death on the gallows The swill-milk dealer
puts himself in the way of committing murder
by wholesale, and we fine him mildly, destroy
his vile stuff, and think justice has been done.
IL is time this abuse was remedled.

TH1T BID MIN.

According to Mr. Blaine's enemies, who OF
course know more about him and his doings
than anybody else, he has entirely revolution
lied the policy of the Catholic Church the world
over. For the sake of helping this bold, bad
man, that Church has abandoned principles
and policies TO which it has adhered through
centuries. This seems strange, but then it is
entirely impossible that Mr.. Blaine's enemies
should be mistaken.
According to these same enemies, the Repub-
lican party is bound hand and foot by the
devilish Vaccinations of this same Mr. Blame
The voters do not like him. and have no faith
in him, and want to have nothing to do with
him, and would infinitely prefer some other
candidate but he has the great party so
entirely in his tolls that its voters have no
chance to express their real opinions, and in
spite of the heroic efforts of various leaders
and statesmen, whom Mr.. Blaine's opponents
never fail to encourage and to praise, the party
is in danger of committing suicide by noml-
mating him again in a fit of emotional insanity.
This sounds strange and scarcely credible In
view of the rather obvious fact that the masses
of voters seem to have a liking for MIR. Blaine,
and there is not to be found Republican
leader who doubts that the voters are very
generally inclined to urge his nomination,
while he and his friends have been making no
effort to that end. But, of course, the truthful
enemies of the bad man from Maine cannot be
mistaken.
There is worse behind. According to these en-
emies, the arch-conspirator has gone so far that
he has actually tried to have Senator Sherman
kidnapped, and dragged out of the country,
prisoner by certain Spaniards or Cubans. A
little vagueness about the story Is pardonable
obviously the cOnspiratOrs would not dlvulge
their movements and intentions too plainly.
But there can be no doubt about the main facts,
for the enemies of Mr.. Blaine are sure, and
they are never mistaken. But for the super
human shrewdness of some individual. Senator
Sherman would at this moment be languishiDg
in some foreign dungeon in the hands of for
eign bandits, hired by Blame
On the whole, Mr. Blaine seems to be a rather
large and influential man. To the naked eye
he appears to be writing valuable and interest
ing books and visiting scattered members of
his family. But every step is really part of
dark conspiracy, according to the veracious
historians of the Mugwump variety. That
these men are crazed by their fear of the man
from Maine, and, so to speak, have snakes in
their boots is of course impossible.
